Going all in with no plan... Chairwoman could have dragged Eun Chong by his hair. Go ahead report it to the police, without a strategy that can read their next move it's useless....
I could deal with that if they just gave the FLs more power. They make them extremely naive, falling into every…
and that is exactly why you come back. it's psychological when you scream at the TV or want to throw your phone, your adrenaline rises. when your adrenaline rises it makes your body want more, and that's how you become an addict
lol, so their intention is to frustrate the hell out of us and we are hooked.
I love how they picked up on small things that I notice in dramas
hugging, they rarely hug in dramas. I was so happy to see the FL and eldest sister hugging. (family, not couples)
servants walking for long distances. that really irks me. they'll walk to a different region.
Here when the Yi was going back home her servants were on a cart. yes, treat them like humans. I want to rewind and see if it was pulled by a horse or a servant 😂
this series picked up on a lot of little things that are definitely lacking in drama world.
the family dynamic between FL, father and siblings, not the cousins. That relationship is beautiful, pure and honest. I hope it remains that way.
if you've ever wondered why so many can be so frustrated with a series yet come back daily, here is the answer. because the script is written like that. it's an amazing skill. although these type of dramas don't get high ratings, they get great viewership.
if this was a regular 24 episode romance drama with a FL like Ha Na, we would have dropped it at episode 3 or sooner.
but this is a MAKJANG
FROM Google AI
A "makjang drama" is a Korean drama genre characterized by highly exaggerated, melodramatic storylines with extreme plot twists, often involving revenge, birth secrets, adultery, and other sensational elements, pushing the boundaries of believability to keep viewers hooked, even if the plot becomes ridiculous; essentially, it's a soap opera with an over-the-top, sensationalized narrative. Key characteristics of a makjang drama: Outrageous plot twists: Unexpected and dramatic turns in the story that often defy logic. Intense character conflicts: Characters with extreme personalities and exaggerated emotions, often driven by revenge or betrayal. Unrealistic scenarios: Situations that are highly improbable and would not occur in real life. Twisted family secrets: Revelations about hidden identities, long-lost relatives, or past wrongdoings. Melodramatic tone: Heavy emphasis on emotional highs and lows, often with exaggerated expressions and dramatic acting. Origin of the term: "Makjang" is a Korean word literally meaning "dead end in a mine shaft," which is used metaphorically to describe a situation that is extremely dire or hopeless.

ep1 was about how he met his gf, who had a fiance, she agreed to marry him so she could get the company shares from her grandfather.
ML, is a cleaner, he fixes issues and handles all important things for Grandpa.
he met his gf and a business, and she hid her identity. she is the chairman's daughter. ML thought the chairman's daughter was in the US.
so when he went to the wedding, he was shocked. and she ghosted him.
that's the basis of the ML's character starting point.
